Is Nintendo under- or over-valued?

Valuing a stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge value. Check out the Nintendo P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA

Nintendo's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 13x. In other words, Nintendo shares trade at around 13x recent earnings.

However, Nintendo's P/E ratio is best considered in relation to those of others within the electronic gaming & multimedia industry or those of similar companies.

Nintendo's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 4.1781. Higher PEG ratios such as this can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value given the current rate of growth.

The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Nintendo's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

However, it's sensible to consider Nintendo's PEG ratio in relation to those of similar companies.

Nintendo's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is a whopping $541.1 billion (£442.3 billion).

The EBITDA is a measure of a Nintendo's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

To put that into context you can compare it against similar companies.
